Who do you like next year BH?

If we're bad enough that we "won't be good for 2-3 years anyway", we're going to be in a position where we must take a **** sure-fire stud. A day one contributor. A franchise player. Anything else is unacceptable with such a draft position.

Enough projects. Projects are worthless. Stupid teams take projects hoping they'll pan out "if we just work hard enough" and they almost always fail. **** that ****. Take a guy where it will be clear whether he sucks ass or is a star-in-the-making within the first three months of his first season.

We aren't picking top 2-3 so that throws out any notion of getting a sure-fire stud. You can thank mediocrity for that.

No point crying over spilt milk but man Michael Gilchrist look like a future DPOY and an all star... Bobcats have half as much wins already as last season with him impacting them defensively...

Was absolutely wanting him on the Suns... (A.Davis too)

Perry Jones may still be a decent player once given playing time.



Anyways Shabazz Is going to be a stud... I'm talking about Jerry Stackhouse v2.0... 25ppg type of SG..
Goodwin is my second choice.


Nerlen Noels scare me because he doesn't have high motor..

Kenneth Faried is under sized but his motor allows him to be a productive player.
Work horse players that have Ball IQ will be contributors for a long time... So I'm down for any players with those traits.

2014 is an awesome draft to be in the top 5...
Wiggins, Parker, Adams, Randle...

Need to capitalise next 2 seasons...

Need to beat the Lakers to the punch... I have a feeling if they fail this season they will trade for high picks... I have a feeling they might turn Pau Gasol to a top 3 pick these bastards...

They would have to be insane to do that. An in prime Ray Allen didn't even net that. You just don't trade top 3 picks.

We'll see what you're saying after December. I have a feeling we'll be bottom 5 of the league record wise when the 1st of the year rolls around. We're losing to teams like Toronto and Detroit already mate. There won't be any lower to go soon.

We need to make some trades to suck even more while gaining more young players/picks.

[Prestige]

What happened to Beasley? He was killing us earlier on and Gentry decided to take him out for no reason in the 4th. We had no answer for him. He should be your go-to guy

Lets not underestimate the corruption that the Lakers can invoke...

They got Howard for A knee-less Bynum.

There you go.

Whats really sad is that according to the ESPN trade machine, doing that trade (Our players for the Wizards players) would only set us back 2 wins and only gives the Wizards 1 extra win. Thats pathetic and just shows how much we suck.

[grumpysaddle]

I would have traded the entire Suns team,but half of them can't be traded. So, I dunno what kind of miracle trade people are hoping for...
